Sweet
Apple Pie started to play their strong melodic power pop songs
throughout France around 1996. Very soon, their punchy live
performances catch the attention of an increasing number of fans.
After
the release of a well-noticed 6-track mini-album 'First Slice' in
1998, the band is ready for a new challenge : they cross the Channel
for the first time to tour England. And it works. This is the
beginning of a whole series of international tours, with many shows
in famous venues throughout England (London, Brighton, Liverpool,
Manchester...) and Spain (Barcelona, Valencia, Tarragona,
Madrid...).
Sweet
Apple Pie make their first full album 'Everybody Wants To Be A
Supertiger' in 2002 on Spirit Of Jungle. It is released in France
(Spirit Of Jungle/Wagram), Japan (Painted Sky Discs), USA (Not Lame
Recordings) and Spain (Bip Bip Records). The album is very well
received by the public and it gets excellent reviews in the press.
The band gives several TV and radio shows in France (Canal Jimmy...)
and in Spain (TVE, Telemadrid...). The same year, a four-week French
tour with the american band Cotton Mather is organized, followed by
many concerts and festivals in France and abroad.
In
the meantime, from 2001 to 2015, unreleased tracks have appeared on
EPs and on several compilations around the globe : Australia, Japan,
Spain, France, England. It is time to make a new album. For that,
Sweet Apple Pie create their own record label Supertiger
Productions.
After
a new English tour ending at the world famous Cavern Club in
Liverpool by end of 2015, Sweet Apple Pie get into the studio for a
few weeks and record their second album. 'Between The Lines' (Supertiger
Productions) shows the evolution of the band and reveals their new
world : the tone is both deeper and more direct, the songs more
personal, yet still with those special vocal harmonies. The album is
finally mastered at Abbey Road Studios in London early 2016.
The
album has been released first in the USA on Not Lame Recordings,
immediately getting very good feedback. 'Between The Lines' has been
then released in France and Switzerland on Polaris/Sony Music, in
Spain on Rock Indiana Records and in Japan on Wizzard In Vinyl
Records. A new tour throughout Europe has been completed by the end
of 2016 to support the new record, with some highlights like a new
Spanish national TV show and well noticed gigs in Paris, Madrid,
London, Liverpool, Portsmouth, etc... A new international tour is
being set up for 2005.
